Crew member overboard


Recommended Posts

Maybe this is inappropriate, but I want to commend KLA for using the word "they're" correctly. In this day and age of using shortcuts for social media, many people have forgotten some basic grammar and punctuation rules. A personal pet peeve is when someone uses "there" for the contraction for "they are". OK. I'm done.

Think the main issue was that it happenned about 4am xmas morning and no one noticed until much later that he was gone, it was only after they checked cctv of ship that the saw him going out onto deck 4 then up to deck 5 but never return.

This is absolutely tragic, especially given his age. The crew apparently did not know until the next morning when he did not turn up at his scheduled event. 

The event was absolutely a suicide unfortunately. I found his Twitter page and there were several tweets indicating that something was not right. Also, people should know that you cannot "fall off" a ship like the Harmony accidentally. Having sailed on her multiple times, I can assure you that her Deck 5 Jogging Track is one of the hardest to "fall off" as it is so enclosed. 

It's such a shame. Thoughts with his family, but also the Harmony team.
